Hi Ian, Woops, Sorry I didn't know I had to know which application I was in!
I don't know, I was only using the college laptop as an aid for writing and
my support worker sets things in the right places whilst I am busily doing
other things with my class. But thanks, I shall give that one a go when I go
next time. One other thing, What's zoom? I don't use magnification.
Thanks for your help, everything you tell me usually helps so I can't wait
to go and sort out the annoying problem next time now.
Thanks again, Regards, Christine W.----- Original Message -----
